however it is over heating intermittently drove it 4 times at least 10 miles at a time no probs but tonight a 3mile trip and it boils over what do you al think ?
Check the rad hoses - are they rock solid...??
Check the Rad - is it hot all over...??
Check the Viscous Fan for correct operation....
Bleed the cooling system to ensure no air pockets....
Change the Expansion Tank Cap....just to make sure....
Check/Change the Thermostat....
Check for good flow from the Water Pump - cheap ones have been known to fail....

Ive not had much experiance with lpg but im sure ive read more than once that a fault in the lpg can cause it
When was it last serviced?

When you say the lpg is not being used have you removed it from the cooling system - the vapouriser uses the coolant when warm to change the lpg from liquid to gas if it is old then the seals may well be perished easy way to check is completely bypass the vapouriser once thats done you have the car back to original then you can track the problems down orings etc

Lots of time with a hose or gently with a pressure washer.
